Capital Planning: Test Whether Two Uses Depend on the Same Dollar

Medro Advisors · Research and commentary from Don McClain

By Don McClain | Founder & Principal, Medro Advisors

The September 29 archive connects use of funds with a workable transaction. Add a double-counting test: give each proposed funding source one amount, availability date and permitted purpose. Then trace every planned use back to it. If the same dollar appears in both a closing contribution and the opening reserve, the plan needs reconciliation. Keep contingent sources separate from confirmed availability. Medro can help organize the review, but a balanced worksheet does not establish financing approval or replace accounting advice.
